What are the lost arts? All we know
Of them il by indication Of their practice,
which ve End in works which have sur.
vived their decay. OF their number
only few can DO mentioned in our brief
spaoe. The ancient Egyptians, Pheni-
clans and Romans had knowledge Of
some things in chemistry which we do
not possess, such as to make malleable
glass. They also knew how to color and
gid glass by process unknown to us.
Bronze and copper were tempered to the
hardness Of steel, and Of this the Egyp-
tians made their edged tools. Paints
ware mixed whose colors were imperish.
able; At least they have existed fresh for
1000 years. At Damascus they made
blades Of steel which could be bent into
: circle, and would fly back into a per-
feet line. Neither this nor the gold
tracsry in their steel can be initiated to-
day. We do not know how King
Ramsses and Thotmes transported mono.
lith and elevated them on the pyramids,
though We could do the same to-day by
other processes. Artisans and chemists
have in vain tried to reproduce iridescent
glass which psychologists have brought
10 light. This does not complete the
catalogue, but it is enough to show that
the sncisnts were by no means nnskill.

CROOKED NOSES.

Why do SO many people have crooked
noses? asks correspondent. II you will
observe the features of the passera-by on
any crowded street you will not find an
average Of one person to the block whose
nose is set straight upon his or her face.
Nearly all are twisted to one side, and
the most curious thing about it that 999
out Of every 1000 are inclined in the
same direction, namely to the right. !
asked an eminent psychologist the other
day why this was SO, and he replied
that it was undoubtedly because people
blew their noses, as rule, with their
right hands. Says he: 'Our noses are
to some extent what we make them.

There is an affinity between ''coal" and
''cold" that is cemenbed by the friendly aid
of a warm overcoat, and AS prudent persons
seldom neglect the "coal-bin" till the rigors
of frost are upon them, so does the wise
man provide the inevitable overcoat in time.
We have given some study to the overcoat
question this season, and the result will, we
think, be creditable to our taste and that of
the purchaser. From the Fancy Silk-lined
Coat for the ultaa-fashionable man to the
substantial but modest garment for those of
milder ideas, we can equally please, besides
having numerous intermediate styles and
qualities 10 meet any taste or desire or price.
Added to this, we keep up our variety of
Gents, Youths aud Boys Suits, Underwear,
Hats and furnishings generally. We are
rather inclined to be thorough than loud"
in our claim, and the testimony of pleased
customer is our fondest and most priced evil
dence OF popularity. Our prices are as
modest as our professions, and while we are
making no row about it, we can hold up
our end of the pole with any house in our
line. Come and let us prove this. The

HOW ABOUT BASE BALL9
Will Savannah Take Another Hand at
the National Game?

Will Savannah Take Another Hand at
n the National Game?
"Will there be Southern League next
seasonp is frequently heard among base
ball men. There is already beginning to be
some talk of next years organization and it
is about time if there is to be league The
manager of one of the old league clubs
makes this proposition, which seems to be
meeting with favor wherever it has been
talked of: THE Southern league as it has
been constituted in the past" he said, "can
never be Il success | mean a success finan-
cially, for that is the one essential. The
reason of this is that the jumps are entirely
too long. railroads fares eating up the
profits. The schedule recently adopted by
the Southern Passenger Association intend
ed for base ball and theatrical companies
may help some. but it will not entirely do
away with the evil.
'Now my idea is simply this: A South
eastern league would leave out New Or
leans on the one side and Nashville on the
other. You can find eight good towns COM
paratively close together, and judicially
| arranged schedule would do away entirely
with expensive jumps. The cities | would
suggest are Atlanta, Macon, Savannah and
Augusta in Georgia, Birmingham and
Montgomery in Alabama, Chattanooga
and Charleston. You will readily see that
those are all quite close together aud no
long trips would be necessary
Atlanta wants to come in again, and its
organ says of the scheme: Chattanooga,
with its large proportion of Northern peo-
pie. is better base ball town than Nash
vile Montgomery will be just as good as
Birmingham, and both would be among the
strongest cities in such league. A club in
Charleston will pay and so will clubs in the
four Georgia cities mentioned. Such a
league would be a go from the start
